I'd like to keep this thread tightly focused on a proposed shopping list (and preferred retailers) for ceiling mounted electrical drops to service 3 phase machinery. The assumption here is that the supply is #8 THHN wire in 1-1/4" EMT, with a 10/4 cord feeding the machine.?

Specifically, I'm looking for suggestions regarding the box/enclosure, preferred method for connecting the THHN conductors to the 10/4 cord (wire nuts or blocks), and the strain relief parts.?

Photos of existing installations would be welcome as well.?

I'm finally at a place where I can install a more permanent wiring solution for my shop, and would like to run the 3 phase on the ceiling, with drop locations above and slightly to the side of each machine.?

Thanks,?
